FAQS
What are common symptoms of TMJ disorder?
Symptoms often include jaw pain or tenderness, clicking or popping sounds, headaches, and difficulty fully opening or closing your mouth. If these sound familiar, we can help evaluate your jaw.
Is TMJ treatment always necessary?
Not always. Mild cases may simply be monitored, but persistent pain, dysfunction, or worsening symptoms are good reasons to pursue treatment before the condition progresses.
Does TMJ treatment involve surgery?
Rarely. Most cases are managed successfully with conservative options like a custom nightguard, lifestyle changes, or Botox, with surgery reserved for the most severe, unresponsive cases.
Can stress make TMJ symptoms worse?
Yes, stress often leads to increased clenching and grinding, which can worsen TMJ symptoms. Managing stress alongside dental treatment can improve your overall results.

What is TMJ Treatment?
TMJ treatment addresses pain and dysfunction in the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, which can cause symptoms like jaw pain, clicking, headaches, and difficulty chewing.
How does it work?
After evaluating your bite, jaw movement, and any signs of grinding or clenching, your dentist may recommend a custom oral appliance, physical therapy techniques, or in some cases Botox to relax overactive jaw muscles.
